Christmas as it used to be: the Mountain Advent in Trodena brings back the true spirit of Christmas: alpine traditions, ancient customs, and moments of reflection. Far from the hustle and bustle, the winding alleys and old cellars of the village center turn into a magical Advent setting: the market with a petting zoo, handmade crafts, traditional skills, and Grandpa’s Christmas workshop. Highlights also include the Krampus parade and concerts in the village church. In December 2025, the beloved Advent market will once again enchant visitors in the picturesque alleys and rustic cellars of Trodena.
During Alm Advent, the Fane Alm transform into a cozy place filled with festive anticipation on all Advent Sundays from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Visitors can look forward to mulled wine, South Tyrolean specialties, a lovingly designed children’s program with crafting and storytelling, as well as stalls offering homemade products.
Each Advent Sunday features its own special highlight:
On the 1st Sunday of Advent (30/11/2025), an alpine devotion takes place at 2 pm, accompanied by a four-part choir and then the brass ensemble of the Valles music band.
On the 2nd Sunday of Advent (07/12/2025), St. Nicholas visits the hut at 2 pm, with musical accompaniment by the Terento men’s choir.
On the 3rd Sunday of Advent (14/12/2025), the brass ensemble of the Rodeneck music band provides contemplative music.
The 4th Sunday of Advent (21/12/2025) is accompanied musically by Thomas Mahlknecht and Johannes Oberhofer
A heartwarming Advent experience for young and old alike!

On Monday, 8 December, Welsberg will turn into a charming Advent meeting point from 05:00 p.m. onwards. A small Christmas market featuring selected local handicrafts offers special gift ideas, while warm drinks and hearty dishes create a cozy atmosphere. The “Glumpatwichtel” adds a cheerful touch. Participants may bring a “glumpat gift” – an item no longer needed – nicely wrapped to keep the surprise. On site, the gift is handed in, a ticket is drawn, and the glumpat gifts are then raffled among the attendees. A joyful addition to the Advent season and a moment filled with small surprises.
